bluemonday Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 In the Sunday Times Clicky Britain’s financiers and entrepreneurs are quitting the UK at a rate of 10 a week to avoid Labour’s new 50% taxes. The burgeoning exodus threatens to deepen a £178 billion black hole in the public finances and leave middle-class voters with higher taxes for years to come, figures obtained from Companies House reveal. The number of directors of British businesses registered as living in the low-tax centres of Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man has risen by almost 500 to 6,729 in the past 12 months. Jersey Finance, an agency set up to attract financial talent to the island, has held a series of private dinners in London to woo new residents. Now would I be correct in assuming the IOM is engaged on a similar 'recruitment' drive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manshimajin Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 Funny that they wouldn't move for 40% tax but will move for 50%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
